When the economy isn't doing well, bar business can actually go up. While making a cocktail isn't rocket science, one must follow some basic principles to be successful.
In order to pass the examinations of bartending school, students have to be able to create a number of different drinks upon request and without referring back to a book or to notes. In a posh restaurant setting, the bartender may have little to no contact with the public, but in a cozy bar type setting, the bartender could be in constant contact with the public. Remember customers names and welcome them, using their names, the next time they visit.
A good bartender can make a lot of money from tips. When selecting a bartending school, make sure to ask questions, and be leery of those that cannot offer answers. While learning how to make and serve drinks the students also pick up on how to be a top knotch bartender.
